Hello ports@, recently I saw TMPPLIST being used for a relatively simple fonts port instead of pkg-plist to keep track of files to be installed by a port. I am quite surprised because I've always thought that this mechanism is reserved for special cases such as autoplist for Python packages. Do we have any (perhaps unwritten) policy for when to use TMPPLIST? And when should a port maintainer stick to pkg-plist? Cheers, Mateusz
